Pillows Talks: Undressing Indigenous Bodies and Sexualities

Inspired by Bedpost Confessions, and hosted by Jodi Stonehouse and Tracy Bear, Tipi Confessions was an event held by the University of Alberta Faculty of Native Studies at the Art Gallery of Alberta's Ledcor Theatre on December 04, 2015. It was an evening full of fun, sexy, and heartbreaking poetry and spoken word performances by the beautiful and brilliant Joshua Whitehead, Billy-Ray Belcourt, Kim Tallbear, and Richard Van Camp. Your podcast host, Tashina Makokis, was also one of the performers of that night.
